Console wars are for kids. Subscription wars are for the discerning adults, and with a brand new (although not really) PlayStation subscription service on the horizon, things are going to start heating up. Further evidence of this has come to the reaction to Sony CFO Hiroki Totoki’s comments that their investment into AAA games would need to drop if they were to put them onto a subscription service day one. First of all, I’ll get to the actual comment in…

EA are dropping the FIFA name after decades of what sounds like a difficult partnership. It’s a chance to show that gameplay and good brand managem… who am I kidding? It’s in The Name. Genuinely. You know what happens in 2023, when EA Sports FC becomes the new name of this year’s biggest football game? The new officially sanctioned game, thrown roughly together by two coders in six weeks, still outsells it. And EA really only have themselves to blame.…

While I edit away on my MLB The Show 22 video for YouTube, I thought I would put together my initial thoughts of the Road to the Show mode available in the game. In Road to the Show, you will create your own player, choose a position - or a hybrid position which I would touch on later - and begin your career in the minor...minor leagues. After selecting the Blue Jays as my ideal team to play for, I was finally drafted and began playing minor baseball. How does this compare to other create-your-own-player modes in other games? Let's dive in

From the creators of the My Universe series (School Teacher, My Baby, Cooking Star Restaurant) comes the next installment in the extremely kid-friendly series Green Adventure – Farmer Friends. Releasing June 30th on Nintendo Switch and available digitally on PS4/PS5 and Steam as well, it’s time to break out the overalls and dust off your gardening tools! In what appears to be following the traditional farming game storyline: You’ve inherited the old family farm and it’s time to reinvent and…

Life simulation games are not a new thing for Disney. On the 3DS, Disney Magical World 1 and 2 came out. The second one even came to the 3DS. But now Disney is trying something a little different. An upcoming free-to-play game called Disney Dreamlight Valley is a life simulation game that looks like the Sims meets Disney! Check out the announcement trailer and some thoughts below. Disney Dreamlight Valley is the newest life simulation game from Disney. The game…

When you look at the wide selection of open world games available to gamers today, they all do a pretty good job of creating huge, beautiful, fun-filled worlds. They all do such a good job, in fact, that you may begin to have hard time differentiating one franchise from another. So how do you set yourself apart? Is it a good story? Not really, as most are adequate as a conduit for your gameplay. So then what is it? Side content, and those minor elements that ultimately play a major role. And Horizon Forbidden West is doing it the best.

If you’ve been reading the website or following me on Twitter, you know how excited I am for Two Point Campus. I had way too much fun with Two Point Hospital and can’t wait for that to continue with this release. Today, SEGA dropped more information on the Wizardry class. Let’s take a look!

This edition will include: the game, “collector’s box, cloth poster, acrylic diorama, enamel pin set, set of 12 trading cards, and full color artbook.” It is available to pre-order at Target for $149.99 for…

Every publisher wants to re-release remasters of their game and sell a billion more copies. Extra points if it’s to people who’ve already bought it multiple times before. But sometimes there are relics of the past that might not make the trip… I’m talking butt shots, off-colour jokes and dated satire. The latest example of this involves Rockstar and the Grand Theft Auto V remaster. It supposedly removes a character model for “drag queen” from the game, as well as…

My first reaction to the news that Microsoft were experimenting with in-game adverts for free-to-play titles was a resounding meh. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not thrilled, but come on. They won’t be the first ones, and they won’t be the last. Let’s face it, advertising is pretty sparse within the world of video games. If the people behind television had been in charge of the gaming industry, there’d have been banner ads flooding the lower third of every title…
